TEXTILE works large and small were mounted on the walls of the Barry Jackson Room, Malvern for a new exhibition by local artists.

The Creative Textiles exhibition features work by Group Purple, seven artists from around the three counties.

Member Sylvia Thistle, from Malvern, said the exhibition included a mix of textiles, from embroidery to batik.

"This gives us as a group a motivation to carry on doing work and developing our skills," she said

"Working as a group, you work together and support and encourage each other."

Ms Thistle said she hoped visitors to the exhibition would enjoy it.

"We hope to inspire other people to stitch," she said.

Creative Textiles is on show at the Grange Road venue until Friday, June 13.
